More high school students in Metro Detroit and the rest of Michigan are meeting state standards in reading, science and social studies, according to test scores released Thursday. A record number of students - 52,727 - will get state merit scholarships to help pay for college. Rich Gibson, former professor at Wayne State University, who was involved in the creation of MEAP, believes the tests are flawed because kids from affluent families are more likely to pass. "These kinds of tests consistently only measure ZIP codes and nothing of any significance other than that," he said.
